EAST HULL: Police are searching for a driver who sped off after crashing into two cyclists.

Both were knocked off their bikes after they were hit by a yellow Renault Megane Cabriolet at the junction of Holderness Road and Laburnum Avenue.

Police said the car is believed to have crossed on to the opposite side of the road when it turned into Laburnum Avenue.

A Humberside Police spokesman said: "The vehicle stopped and the driver spoke to the cyclists but did not exchange details and quickly left the scene, driving off at speed along Laburnum Avenue in the direction of James Reckitt Avenue."

    “Most drivers shouldn't be allowed on the road.
    Obviously this bloke was surprised by the fact that other road users [an alien concept to many 'motorists'] were present.”
